"For I know the
plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper
you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a
future."

Just had Bible Study with XY today. Her views on the Charismatic Movement made me think. She said it seemed too mystical and experiential to her and should not be stressed upon. She said that according to Acts, speaking in tongues (common in Pentecostal/Charismatic Churches) is only useful if there is someone around with the gift of interpretation. However, thanks to help from EAT and ZM, and further research, there is a strong case that this practice is useful, even without interpreters, as supported by several verses in 1Corinthians and other NT books.
Also, she said that the act of being "slain in the Spirit" was not recorded in the Bible. After doing some 'research' on the internet, it seems that it really wasn't. So my question is: is it biblical? Someone out there, if you have an answer to my question, please tell me. Your answer would be greatly appreciated =)
I still have faith and believe in Joel's prophesy. I still believe in the workings, physical manifestations and gifts of the Holy Spirit today. I still believe, and i want the world to know why i have such hope.
Anyway, i went to ACJC Symphonic Band concert -- muse, today. My opinion? Not lacklustre but not fantastic, not quite worth $15 but i'm not complaining. One new thing i found out though. Ho Wen Long, who was an actor before, is currently in ACJCSB Percussion, and he plays the drums superbly; he's super talented.
